FNEEQ-CSN speaks out about postponing presentation of AI guidelines

The Fédération nationale des enseignantes et enseignants du Québec (FNEEQ-CSN) has spoken out about the Government of Québec’s recent decision to postpone the release of guidelines for integration of AI at cégeps and universities, reports the Journal de Montréal. The Journal explains that QC’s consultation body on AI in higher education had initially planned to present its findings in April. QC has reportedly pushed the deadline to the end of the summer, with an accompanying reference framework expected at the start of the Fall semester. However, FNEEQ-CSN President Benoît Lacoursière said that institutions have been waiting for these guidelines before they take action, and that presenting the framework in April would give institutions adequate time to prepare for the Fall.
